About the Course

This course will provide you a foundational understanding of machine learning models (logistic regression, multilayer perceptrons, convolutional
neural networks, natural language processing, etc.) as well as demonstrate how these models can solve complex problems in a variety of
industries, from medical diagnostics to image recognition to text prediction. In addition, we have designed practice exercises that will give you
hands-on experience implementing these data science models on data sets. These practice exercises will teach you how to implement machine
learning algorithms with PyTorch, open source libraries used by leading tech companies in the machine learning field (e.g., G...

It's an introductory course, so what you'll get is an intruductiory overview. During the lecture videos, you'll have to take some things for granted. Some of them are explained later, some are not. What I do mind is that there is no interaction between the course staff (lectures or assistants) and course participants. So some of your questions will be left unanswered, and on some you'll get questionable answers. More and more I find this to be the general problem with Coursera. You have few graded quizes and few lab exercises. So in my opinion, the course is not worth paying extra money for the certificate.

I enjoyed Lawrence Carin's explanations a lot but the overall experience was not great I'm afraid. It felt like it did not come together properly. The order of lectures and assignments felt wrong. The Python level of competence was too high for this course and support (via forums) was non-existent. I don't regret finishing the course but I would not recommend it to my friends.

The lectures were great and very easy to follow! However, I found that the assessments were too easy as they comprised solely of multiple choice questions, maybe including hands on coding assessments fo contribute to our final grade would have made me feel more confident that I've grasped what was supposed to be taught to me each week.

Modules need a bit of synchronization.

Please spend some more time explaining gradient descent.

If possible, explain using a board where we could have things simultaneously.

Also, request to have a course on machine vision using CNN etc.

Good introduction to the concepts of machine learning. Somewhat overly repetitive, some inconsistencies. Information is not up to date, for example, the python code for Tensorflow would not work.

This course is good for just theoretical understanding of the subject. But for practical implementation it is too hard to do.

More examples should be provided for each course, and the content needs to be more simplified.

A bit too technical for new learners. More practical exercises will make it more learnable.

The theory is well explained but you guys should update the coding parts to TensorFlow 2.
